Chapter 104 - 104 103 Snow State Wenxue Sect

104: Chapter 103: Snow State, Wenxue Sect 104: Chapter 103: Snow State, Wenxue Sect This voice was so haughty and laced with considerable disdain. Every breath on the second floor congealed for a moment; the previously lively atmosphere instantly cooled down. “Who’s causing trouble here? How dare you accuse my brothers of talking nonsense?” These big men were generally straightforward and hot-tempered, and they began to shout in unison. “Sword Intent is something that not even the ‘Sky Blue Sword’ can necessarily grasp; how could a disciple of a minor sect understand it?” This voice was even more disdainful. “If anyone is to understand it, it would be my big brother; it’s not anyone else’s turn!” Another voice rang out. “Nonsense! What is your big brother anyway? Come out and let everyone have a look!” The big man roared. “How dare you insult my big brother; you’re asking for death!” Anger infused the voice and soon after, a black shadow flew out. Swoosh! An object similar to a hidden weapon shot out, whistling through the air with a sharp sound, its force catching onlookers’ attention. “Slash!” The big man suddenly stood up, pulling out a long sword from the table and slashing diagonally, the sword light dazzling and the sword energy soaring into the sky. Clang! The long sword made contact and broke upon impact, and the hidden weapon was about to stab the big man, threatening to spill blood on the spot. Lin Xuan furrowed his brows slightly. After all, these big men were discussing him, and over a mere rumor they resorted to killing; he found it utterly intolerable. Furthermore, the language used by the people in that private room irked him considerably. Without any hesitation, he flicked his finger, and the wine cup in his hand turned into a blur as it shot out, fast as lightning. In the instant before the hidden weapon could strike, he deflected it. Ding— A tremble resonated in the air as the hidden weapon became embedded in the wall, its tail still vibrating, and a layer of frost had formed around it. Everyone concentrated their gaze and discovered that the supposed hidden weapon was actually a chopstick. Seeing that it was deflected by just a wine cup, they involuntarily gasped in shock. The prowess of both individuals was formidable, far surpassing most of those present. The man holding the broken knife came back to his senses, speaking respectfully, “Thank you, esteemed one, for intervening. I, Wang Hu, am indebted for life.” In the private room, the voice seemed very irritated, yelling indignantly, “Dare to intercept the young master’s hidden weapon? You wish to die!” “Your manner of intervening was too vicious, possibly a bit too much!” Lin Xuan said in a deep voice, not expecting that mere news about him would stir up such an incident. It seemed that Sword Intent was even more important than he had imagined. “Hmph! I want to see who dares to meddle with me!” The door of the eastern private room suddenly opened, and an ashen-faced youth stormed out angrily. “I said no one in Yunzhou could comprehend Sword Intent; do you dare to disagree?” The furious youth snorted coldly, his aura surging powerfully. “This aura… everyone was shocked, Half-step Spirit Sea!” “At such a young age, to have reached the Half-step Spirit Sea stage, even amongst the Three Sects, he must be one of the top disciples.” The crowd was astonished, wondering who he really was. Of course, not everyone was convinced, and a few Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artists immediately replied coldly, “While your strength is commendable, you seem to greatly underestimate Yunzhou!” “Exactly, why couldn’t there be someone in Yunzhou who would grasp Sword Intent!” “Such shortsightedness, just a province at the bottom of Xia Country’s ranking. Once you venture out, you’ll realize how much more exceptional the other provinces are!” The youth spoke with contempt. “Too arrogant, I’ll make you realize the prowess of Yunzhou!” Right then, someone channeled their Spiritual Power, ready to give the arrogant youth a lesson. “Humph!” The young man was not at all intimidated, leisurely taking out a badge from his bosom and twirling it in his hand, “Who dares to lay a hand on me!” A snowflake was engraved on the token, and although it was an inanimate object, it carried a hint of coldness. “Snow State, Wenxue Sect!” someone exclaimed. “If you know, then that’s good!” The youth pocketed the token and asked with a cold smile, “Now, who dares to make a move?” Everyone’s expressions fluctuated, uncertain, but they didn’t dare to take action. Seeing Lin Xuan’s frown, Hu Man quietly explained at his side, “Snow State is adjacent to Yunzhou, but it’s far beyond what Yunzhou can compare with. Not only does Snow State surpass Yunzhou in terms of territory and resources, but even in the field of martial arts cultivation.” “Our Yunzhou Three Sects are all one-star sects, but the Wenxue Sect of Snow State is a two-star sect.” As one of the core disciples of the Lianhua Sect, Hu Man knew more and continued, “Behind a one-star sect, there is a Soul Fusion Realm expert in support, but behind a two-star sect, there’s a Spirit Communication Realm expert.” “The two are simply not on the same level!” Hu Man said all this wanting to persuade Lin Xuan not to act rashly. But who knew that after listening, Lin Xuan simply smiled, his eyes void of fear; he seemed even more inclined to take action. “Now, I will make a move, and I’ll see who dares to stop me?” The young man, like a victorious rooster, strutted to the table of the big man, his right hand shooting out like lightning. “Weren’t you hoping the Mysterious Person would save you?” The youth sneered coldly, “I’m going to make a move now, let’s see if he will save you!” The big man gnashed his teeth angrily, his eyes filled with bloodshot, for these martial artists, their face was their life, and if he was bullied by this young man today, he might as well have been dead. But the immense disparity between them left him with a profound sense of helplessness, able only to glare at the youth with a murderous gaze. “Nice eyes, I’ll just gouge them out!” said the youth, cold and merciless. Whoosh! Whoosh! Lin Xuan swirled his wine glass, the fragrant Spiritual Wine swiftly flying out, condensing in the air into several small swords that shot toward the callous youth. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! The wine was silent, but it was extremely sharp. “Eh? What?” The youth was greatly startled, both because he didn’t expect anyone to dare to take action, and also because the method of turning droplets into solid shapes astonished him. “Be extinguished!” The youth bellowed, his palm emitting a white mist, as if it were thousand-year-old ice, chilling to the core. Instantly, the air around them nearly froze, layers of white frost appearing on the ground and the tables. The big man’s face was also covered with ice crystals, and the small swords formed by the wine froze in mid-air, becoming solid blocks of ice. “Eh?” Lin Xuan marveled, for it was the first time he had witnessed such formidable Ice Power, even stronger than Fan Chong by a notch. Although he was amazed, his actions did not stop. Within the three small wine swords, he infused a trace of golden electric arcs, and they howled as they launched. Bolstered by the Power of thunder and lightning, the three small swords broke through the layer of Cold Ice Power and flew towards the frigid youth. Bang! Bang! Bang! The callous youth was forced to retreat, abandoning the big man, continuously swinging his palms to knock down the three small swords. “Such a powerful technique, to use the softest Water as a weapon for attack, who could this powerful Sword Cultivator be?” Many people were full of astonishment, as they did not catch a clear glimpse of Lin Xuan’s moves. “It’s you!” The cold youth, on the other hand, glared at Lin Xuan, layers of invisible snow and wind swirled behind him, making the entire space seem as if it would transform into winter. “How dare you meddle in the affairs of the Wenxue Sect, I think you wish not to live!” The frigid youth’s palms surged with a blue Cold Ice Qi, mercilessly striking towards Lin Xuan.
